(Shreveport, La.)- Low-cost airline Allegiant Air, LLC today announces new, nonstop jet service to the fun and sun of Orlando, Fla. from Shreveport, La. beginning Nov. 15. The low-fare carrier will celebrate the convenient new service to the Sunshine State, with introductory fares as low as $59* each way, when booked at www.allegiantair.com.

The self-proclaimed "Official Airline for Sunshine" will launch the new scheduled service from Shreveport Regional Airport to Orlando Sanford International Airport with complete vacation packages including roundtrip air and three-night hotel stay for as low as $187**. (Price is per person, based on three-night hotel stay at the Rodeway Inn-Maingate, double occupancy and reflects a Wednesday departure.)

"We are extremely pleased to expand the Allegiant brand of low-fare, nonstop, jet service to Orlando," Maurice J. Gallagher, Allegiant Air president & CEO, said. "This is an exciting new addition for our airline and our customers in the Ark-La-Tex community."

The new flights will operate twice weekly, with service Wednesday and Saturday. Flights will depart the Shreveport Regional Airport at 10:15 a.m. arriving in Orlando Sanford International Airport at 1:25 p.m. Flights leaving Orlando will depart at 8:30 a.m. arriving in Shreveport at 9:40 a.m. (all flight times are local.) "Our region has asked for a long time to have direct service to Orlando," said Dr. C.O. Simpkins, Chairman of the Shreveport Airport. "Having low-fare service with Allegiant Air will be a great benefit for our customers in the Ark-La-Tex who use Shreveport Regional as their home-town hub airport because of its convenience. We will continue to work diligently to secure additional flights and to expand airline service from Shreveport."

"We have worked a long time to bring low-fare airline service to Shreveport Regional Airport," said Shreveport Mayor Keith Hightower. "Allegiant Air's new Orlando service now provides non-stop service to two of the top five leisure locations people in this region go to each year. We appreciate Allegiant Air's efforts to invest in expanded airline service in Shreveport."

The airline launched service from Shreveport to Las Vegas Jan. 18, 2006. The airline said that its market research and input from local community leaders indicate the Shreveport-Bossier community will welcome the new nonstop flights and low fares to Orlando as an alternative connecting flights and long drives to other airports. Allegiant will utilize 150-seat, MD-80 series, jet-aircraft on the route.

The Allegiant Vacations division of the company will offer low-cost packages with 21 of Orlando's most exciting hotel properties and three in Daytona Beach.
